Leopard on ebay?

Hi ehmac community. I was just curious about one thing. I just recently sold Leopard on ebay, not snow leopard.

However, i figures I'd get maybe $40 - $50 dollars. I have the complete retail version 10.5, with the box and everything that you would find in the retail copy. I ended up selling it for $133.50 USD, plus $10.00 shipping. I couldn't believe how much I actually got for it.

Now, my question is. Why is it going for so much? Its just the single user license, not the family pack. I'm just in shock how much I got for it.

Also remember, its Leopard, not Snow Leopard.

Because it's not sold in retail stores any longer and demand still exists for the 10.5 version.

But yes, whoever paid that much for it was an idi -- I mean, an enthusiast who is likely a marvellous fellow! I assume you think the world of them, as do we all.
